Following the advance of Ukrainian forces, Russia has evacuated 11,000 people from the border region of Belgorod.
According to a news agency, the Governor of Belgorod stated that evacuations are being carried out from the Krasnaya Yaruga district due to enemy activities at the border.
According to the news agency, on one hand, Russia has implemented strict security measures in the regions of Kursk, Bryansk, and Belgorod, while on the other hand, Russia’s ally Belarus has also announced an increase in the number of troops at the border.
After the Ukrainian army began attacking the Russian border area of Kursk on August 6, violent clashes erupted between the two forces.
Meanwhile, U.S. media has claimed that Ukrainian forces have advanced 30 kilometers into Russian territory in the Kursk region.
According to U.S. media, for the first time, regular Ukrainian army troops and special operations units have entered Russian territory in Kursk.
Ukrainian President Zelensky has stated that the thousands of attacks on Ukrainian soil from Russia’s Kursk region deserve an appropriate response, noting that almost 2,000 attacks have been launched on the Sumy region from the Kursk districts alone.
